Xtegrity™ wins Innovation Award!

On Thursday 25th June at the Elevator Awards 2015 (previously known as The Grampian Awards for Business Excellence) the Grampian Award for Innovation, sponsored by Murgitroyd was awarded to our sister company, Equalizer Flange Integrity Systems Ltd for its Xtegrity™ System.

The Xtegrity™ system takes a completely new and innovative approach to the problem of heavily corroded or degraded bolts in flange joints on offshore and onshore installations. It has taken away the need to remove corroded bolts by “replacing” them with a new set of bolts which clamp round the outside of the flange and are held in place with a floating frame.

Alan Morrison, General Manager commented: “This is a great achievement for the company and we are very proud to accept this prestigious award. The Xtegrity™ Flange Integrity System has significant operational and commercial benefits with the potential to revolutionise the market because it has come up with a solution to an industry-wide problem of how best to maintain ageing assets in a way that is safe, cost effective and budgetable and which can significantly reduce or eliminate the need to shutdown in order to carry out the work.”
